NOTE! The permissible axle loads and tyre load capacities must not be
exceeded. The front axle load must not be less than 20%. The tyre pressure
should be in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations
Axle load calculations
Designations:
G
C
– tractor weight,
T
P
– front axle load of the empty tractor,
T
T
– rear axle load of the empty tractor,
G
P
– total weight of rear-mounted device,
G
T
– total weight of front-mounted device,
a – distance between the centre of gravity of the front-mounted device and the centre of
the axle,
b – tractor wheel track,
c – distance between the centre of the rear axle and the centre of the hitch bolt of the
rear device,
d – distance of the machine's centre of gravity from the tractor's hitch bolt (for all widths
assume 1.9 m)
x – distance of the centre of gravity from the rear axle (if the manufacturer does not
specify this parameter, enter 0.45).
